100%. Absolutely floored when I saw this pass. 70 foot in the air and on the money.

"Look, I still believe in universal healthcare, I'm just doing my own research and asking some questions"

Coach Thibodoppelganger? Brunson played the entire second half with game never truly close.

Maybe Hauser if you value education

Ha no!

One observation from my visit to Cameron and seeing the back of house: trying to put NBA Cup final there would be a gigantic logistical clusterf. There's no way.

Wahoowa!!!

Ps the nature of this business is that I end up flying home from someplace the morning the clocks change nearly every year. Hasn't bit me yet!!

NBA Draft sleepers: Another Santa Clara surprise, plus 9 more to watch this March Madness The 2026 draft class is so loaded that NBA-caliber prospects will get passed over. But keep an eye on these under-the-radar guys.

Good morning! Wrote some words on yet another Santa Clara draft sleeper, plus a few other deep cuts who might be worth tracking in March.

11-minute stretch where North Carolina only had 2 points

YIIIIIIKES

Duke might wanna chill a bit on the YOLO 1-on-3 transition sequences now that they're up 23 with six minutes left.

All Duke now. NC offense completely off the rails last ten minutes, and their only chance was outscoring the Devils. 67-46 Duke at the under 8 TO.

Incredible patience and footwork by Boozer to work Veesaar for a lefty finish at the rim. Still wondering how NBA refs will treat that hesi, another near-carry.

Also in the crowd here: Former Hawks legend Roshown McLeod

Scheyer slumped in his chair in frustration at that last set Duke ran, which Cayden Boozer somehow bailed out with a late-clock 3.

Hubert Davis can't believe there wasn't a foul after Seth Trimble lost a contact on his drive to the hoop. Game stopped while he pops it back in.

omg

Not sure if camera is picking this up but Boozer has two giant, Jokic-esque scratches on his right arm.

Really strong three-minute stretch here from UNC's Henri Veesaar, a couple of elite rim protection stops and a 3-pointer from above the arc at the other end to spark a Tar Heels run. Now 35-32 Duke with 1:47 left in first half.

DID HE GIVE YOU A SLICE!

yes! took me a second to find him

Yes, that's L.A. Rams GM Les Snead and Rams head coach Sean McVay in the seats behind the Duke bench.

You'd like Dame Sarr to be more shot-ready on that kickout from Boozer. Took him a minute to lineup his footwork and get into shooting motion; that time window will vanish at next level.

look I just follow the data, the conclusions are what they are

Cameron Crazies in full-throated revelry after that last UNC airball, with the Devils already up by 11. Incredible resilience by these kids to still find joy in life after not getting into Virginia.

SERIOUS rebound by UNC's Jonathan Powell to high-point a rebound away from Boozer. Unfortunately Tar Heels couldn't get points out of it.

Awesome weakside read by UNC's Zayden High to spike Boozer's post-up off the glass. One of the only times they've stopped him so far.
